I’d like to talk about a ghost story that nearly scared me to death.
It’s mainly about a doll that went on a killing spree. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it’s a ghost story, you know, so it doesn’t need to make any sense.
Anyway, the story begins like this.
A girl died in a tragic car accident, and when she was dying, she was holding a doll in her arms. After the accident, the girl’s father gave away all of the things she left, including the doll, ‘cause he doesn’t want any reminder of his little girl. Her death just broke his heart.
However, somehow, an evil spirit got into the doll, so since then, the doll was full of hatred and anger, and started to kill anyone she saw, maybe that’s because she felt abandoned.
The description of the book is so vivid that I could picture the crime scene in my head, you know. There’s blood everywhere, and I felt as if I could hear people scream, but once I started the first chapter, it’s just impossible to put it down, I mean, I just wanted to know what happened next, like who will be the next victim. I’ve even had a few sleepless nights recently because of this book.
